The 66th Cannes Film Festival opened as filmmakers and superstars arrived in Cannes from around the world. Last night Carina Lau Ka Ling happily had the support of her Cannes Best Actor husband Tony Leung Chiu Wai as they headed to Cannes; Zhang Ziyi last night already arrived in Cannes as a member of the Un Certain Regard segment jury; red carpet queen Fan Bingbing, Andy Lau Tak Wa, Sammi Cheng Sau Man, Vicki Zhao Wei, Chen Kun, Donnie Yen Chi Tan and others also arrived.

Lau Ka Ling last night headed for Cannes. With husband Leung Chiu Wai in her company she was even happier; last night she first attended her friend Pansy Ho Chiu King's event before heading to the airport. Will Wai Jai who won the Cannes Best Actor with IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE (FA YEUNG NIN WA) in 2000 be lucky for his wife?

Lau Ka Ling was said if she was confident about winning Best Actress with her Cannes Un Certain Regard selection BENDS (GOR GAI)? She said that she of course was happy about having Wai Jai tag along, but that did not mean that victory was certain. In addition Wai Jai had many friends in Cannes like Ang Lee and Jia Zhangke, so he would take the chance to catch up. As for singing the end credit song for the film, Ka Ling joked that she only accepted because she could not taking her friends' begging. Back then she released 3 records but she had no confidence in singing. This song could only be described as a performance that truly came from the heart, which she believed the audience would be able to experience. Even her husband Leung Chiu Wai has not heard it yet. At the premiere everyone would be able to hear it. The media also focused on whether THE GRANDMASTERS' Leung Chiu Wai and IP MAN's Yen Chi Wan will run into each other in Cannes, since many films like Lau Tak Wa, Cheng Sau Man and Johnnie To Kei Fung's BLIND DETECTIVE (MAN TAM), Lau Ka Ling and Chen Kun's BENDS and Yen Chi Tan's THE ICEMAN COMETH 3D (BING FUNG HUP 3D) will promote there.
